CAMPERVAN HIRE IN AUSTRALIA<br />

ain’t nothing trashy about this trailer<br />

Australia’s a vast country and<br />

there are numbers of ways to<br />

travel around. You could sign up<br />

for a guided tour, hire a car or<br />

equip yourself with a hop-on,<br />

hop-off bus pass, or you could<br />

zoom around by plane. But for the<br />

ultimate in flexibility it’s hard to<br />

beat the freedom of a campervan.<br />

In fact, so famous has Australia<br />

become for this style of travel, it’s<br />

almost a rite of passage to hire<br />

your own home on wheels as part<br />

of your big Aussie adventure!<br />

AUSTRALIA<br />

freedom & flexibility<br />

With a campervan, you’re your own boss<br />

and you make the rules. Plan your route in<br />

advance, or make it up as you go, there’s<br />

no itinerary and nobody is going to tell you<br />

what to do. Wake up when you want, go<br />

to sleep when you want and avoid all that<br />

endless packing and unpacking.<br />

WHERE TO <strong>STA</strong>Y<br />

Campsites can be found everywhere in<br />

Australia, from cities to beaches, and from<br />

national parks to out-of-the-way places<br />

you’d never reach otherwise. It’s easy to<br />

find somewhere cheap to stay and you’ll be<br />

given a campsite directory when you pick<br />

up your vehicle to make planning easy. As<br />

an absolute minimum, campsite facilities<br />

will include clean showers and toilets,<br />

barbecues and shared kitchen.<br />

SAVE MONEY<br />

When you hire a campervan, you avoid<br />

having to fork out for an expensive place<br />

to stay each night. Shop at supermarkets<br />

and markets for the best value produce and<br />

cater for yourself, while still enjoying meals<br />

out along the way. The fridge on board<br />

ensures you always have a supply of cold<br />

drinks and beers, and you’re never far from<br />

a snack when hunger strikes!<br />
